This week has been a particularly crazy weather week, especially this late into winter. I want to personally thank the teachers, staff and parents for your ongoing patience and flexibility!
This week, many of the activities centered around the holiday of Purim. The Kindergarten class presented a play to the turning-four class of the ELC. The Judaics classes have been learning all about the holiday, which Morah Alla describes below. Students in different grades have baked hamentashen. The entire school has been participating in a fundraiser for Relay for Life which is an important tzedakah project. Weather permitting, students went to a megillah reading and had a great time at the Purim seudah. All in all, it's been a great week!
In the midst of the snow cancellations, I was able to try a new hamesntashen recipe at home which I will share below. It's definitely for the sweet-tooth in us, but it was delicious!
Chag Purim Sameach!
